IMPACT STORIES

Our current strategic plan also has planned work extending into the next two years to look at the feasibility of and models for further expansion of community-based services, for example expansion of services into long term care facilities and exploring the pros and cons of developing a mobile dental unit."

We are benefitting from improved communications among the staff; improved organization of the Center with establishment of lead positions and leadership meetings; improved work flows; improved QI/QA programs; growth of community-based work that helps expand access to care for our community without having to expand our physical space; and a successful expansion of the scope of our community-based services in our Head Start and Early Childhood Education programs so children have access to a full spectrum of oral health care with 85% receiving all the services they need to maintain their oral health within their classroom setting and all participating children having a dental home with Waterville Community Dental Center."

The team was energizing, experienced, knowledgeable, and a pleasure to work with. They clearly appreciated both the importance and challenges of providing rural based health care services."

The RHRC has proven to be an invaluable resource for our facility. The comprehensive technical assistance we received was not only thorough but also highly tailored to meet our specific needs.Their expertise and support have significantly contributed to our operational efficiency and service quality.”

I cannot overstate the value that RHRC brings to rural community hospitals that are resource constrained. We continue to benefit from their experience, expertise, and great customer service."

This was a very well‑done presentation. Thank you."
